Van de Kamp's


December 1955 cover of Van de Kamp's Windmill. This was a internal magazine the company produced each month.
Inside were articles on the company plus everyone's birthdays,births,promotions, weddings and everything else that was happening with the employees ( you know all the personal stuff most companies could care less about these days). This cover has Santa stocking up at the Van Kamp's Bakery section for xmas eve supplies. "Hey Santa don't forget the sticky buns!"
